Steve is standing amongst a crowd that is 30 feet deep and 3 miles long at a parade on both sides of the street. He wants to estimate how many people are there. If 10 people occupy 40 square feet, then estimate the size of the crowd watching the parade along the 3 mile stretch. a. 276300 c. 237060 b. 237600 d. 260073 e. 732600
B. 237,600 people. You would find the Square feet of one side of the street. Which is length times width. 15,840ft (3 miles)x 30 ft. Double the the amount to count for the other side of the street, then divide by 40 and multiply by 10.
